Anyone out there that can give me some advice

I am looking to buy a Nissan juke tekna. it is £16,500 from the dealer but I can get it for £14,070 from buyanewcaronline.com. They have offered me £5000 for mine which I will keep until sept when they deliver the new car and take mine away. Are they a legit operation it seems to good to be true.
Thanks
Mary

Well I can't comment on the company itself as I've never dealt with them, but I have looked Sonnauto (UK) Ltd up on a company database and the company has been trading for a while. The website for sonnauto is http://www.sonnauto.com and so it looks like buyanewcaronline.co.uk is an online venture of a car dealer.

Please start a new thread, rather than updating a random, unrelated thread.

Hi Mary

Did you go ahead and buy the car from them? I am looking at a corsa and it's a saving of over £5000 by buying from them. But of course I am a bit wary, as the saying goes, is it too good to be true?

Your experience would help me out in making my decision, thanks Michelle.

http://buyanewcaronline.com/ isn't a car dealer. It's just a parked domain page, pointing to a variety of other motoring related websites. The owner of the website will get a few pence every time someone clicks through to another site.

You need to be sure exactly who it is that is offering to do business with you, and then check them out. Every website should have the full company name, number, and registered office on it, which you can check against public records and CCJ registers. If it doesn't have these details - stay well clear.

The OP got the TLD wrong in the subject, it should be .co.uk which everyone else appears to be referencing looking at the quotes (but useful to point out for posterity).

Ok, lets be clear why you're looking at this:
- you're not paranoid
- Review Centre (which anyone could fill in) didn't have enough online info (on buyanewcaronline or Sonnauto)
- you want confidence that after electronically transferring a lot of cash...your car WILL turn up the next day

So lets hope these are helpful answers:
- it's healthy to be sceptical when you're parting with £20k, but un informed reviews stating 'you should avoid' online car dealers are worse than useless!
- I have placed this review in as many places as possible to assist with your dilemma (yes I am a real person - you can find me on LinkedIn)!
- the car (Nissan Qashqai) turned up the next day DESPITE an admin error that meant Buyanewcaronline had NOT actually received my money!

Finally - a testimonial:
Andrew and Jon, you deserve great credit for the professional way in which you manage your business;
you kept me your regularly informed; the car arrived at 8.15am from a very courteous and helpful driver;
and most of all....
thanks VERY MUCH for trusting me to have the car and sort out the cash later, as I'm sure that wasn't an easy decision for you!
I truly hope this review helps you to help many more people save significant amounts on their next cars!

Best Wishes
